Posts: A lot.
my 2012 250R has 5600miles on it I believe...
it set for well over a year by the previous owner and I've had to clean the carbs 3 times so far and it is still not right.... I think this winter I will pull the carbs and send them to Gorden and be done with the carb problem
....
I did notice the left front fork is leaking a bit.... it's covered in oil
these roads around here are hard on things !!!!!
....
Although I hate to admit it I have never even checked the valves on this thing
it reminds me of a 650cc of the 1970's not a 250cc with the 16Tfront sprocket
and smaller rear sprocket I can cruse at 70mph all day long and not get above 8k rpm.... so I don't think it would have any trouble doing over 100mph
.... I just wish I didn't have to hassle the fairings when I want to work on it !
.....
